Chapter 785: You really think that I, Qiao Qing, am that Easy to Negotiate with?!

He wanted to slap himself in the face. To make a small profit, he ended up losing so much money and provoked someone he never should’ve provoked!

“Ms. Qiao,” Cao Hong said to Qiao Qing with a respectful tone, “Can we chat inside?”

Qiao Qing lazily leaned back into her chair as she played with her chips.

At his question, she simply glared at him, “What do you mean by that? You lost so you pay up. That is the rule. Your casino lost $50.3B. There’s not much to talk about. Pay up. You want to talk to me inside? What are you planning on doing?”

Her words caused an uproar amongst the crowd.

“Exactly! Since they lost, they should admit their defeat and pay up. Why does he want to talk?!”

“Could it be that he wants to lie his way out or threaten her in private?”

“All the young masters here and Ms. Qiao are all much more capable than him. There’s nobody he can really threaten.”

Jun Yexuan also looked at Cao Hong coldly, “What kind of trick are you playing, Manager Cao? We don’t have all day to waste with you.”

He then tapped on the table, “We aren’t going anywhere. You want to talk? Talk here.”

Cao Hong’s heart dropped and glanced at his subordinate.

The subordinate got the message and left. Before long, he returned with a card.

Cao Hong took the card and walked up to Qiao Qing.

“Ms. Qiao, I know you’re trying to do right for young master Leng. This is all the money Leng Jie has lost here – a total of $2.43B.”

“We haven’t touched any of it and saved it here. Now, we are going to give it back to you untouched.”

“From now on, every time Leng Jie comes to us, we won’t let him in. Please, Ms. Qiao, be gracious and let me live.”

Cao Hong’s words silenced the arena.

Zhou Xin rose and turned to look at Qiao Qing. So she played for the young master.

Leng Yan’s heart warmed. Even after so many years, this girl still put everyone else’s needs before her own.

She was at an age where she was supposed to be spoiled. However, not only was she burdened with the weight of messes she shouldn’t have to handle, she even pays back those who’ve done her favors.

Qiao Qing didn’t know what the others were thinking. In front of Cao Hong’s gaze, she picked up the card with two fingers and snickered.

“Let you live? Have you ever let others live?!”

“If I didn’t come here today, would you have returned this money?”

“Because of the money lost by one man, you request the family to pay it all back with interest. And if the family doesn’t pay, you were going to kill the man. Yet when the casino loses money, you are not going to pay even one cent?”

“You really think that I, Qiao Qing, am that easy to negotiate with?!”

Then, she thrashed her hand and threw the card into Cao Hong’s face. Her rejection was crisp and clean.

Before Jun Yexuan and the others could speak, everyone else had already started to shout.

“Exactly! When the casino wins, they ask for all of it. But when the casino loses, it doesn’t want to pay anything? How does that work?”

“The casino operates like this? How can it stay in business like this?”

“Well, I’m never coming here ever again. This casino takes money out of your pocket but refuses to pay you when you win!”

“They dare to try to rob someone like Ms. Qiao so blatantly. If someone low class like me wins, they’d probably just kick me out!”

“…”

The voices around Cao Hong made him sweat.

But this matter concerned the life and death of the casino. He couldn’t save his own face right now.

He continued to negotiate with Qiao Qing, “How about this – we only have around $10B of free cash right now. How about I pay you that right now and owe you the rest?”
